Living in Eccles

I remember when I lived in Pembroke Avenue, as a youngest but before that we lived in Crambrooke Road, Einton, then in 1967 on St Patrick's Day we left to emigrate to Australia, I have not returned there since then but still have family living there and keep in contact with them, they tell us all about changes, what is still there plus what's been demolished. It seems so odd that I can still remember certain things and places there but have never gone back.

RE: RE: Living in Eccles

I had relatives called Braithwite who lived at 17 Pembroke Avenue who I used to vist when I was young about 1935 or so, at least it was before the war. Uncle Walter worked on the railway as an Engine driver/ Fireman and Aunt Laura was Laura Bailey. They had a son who worked at the Post Office. I am now trying to fit them in my family tree but I believe it does not exist any more
Thanks for any information
Regards
